The Muffs were an American pop punk band based in Southern California, formed in 1991. Led by singer and guitarist Kim Shattuck, the band released four full-length studio albums in the 1990s.
The Muffs was their debut album, released in 1993 on Warner Bros. Records. The quartet rips through the album’s 16 tracks, ranging from and an Angry Samoans cover, to the college radio smash, “Lucky Guy.” In addition, alt-rock superstar Jon Spencer (Pussy Galore and his own Blues Explosion) adds some theremin and The Godfather Of Exotica Korla Pandit’s Hammond Organ makes an appearance. Even the beverage Fruitopia caught the buzz, using the album’s “Everywhere I Go” in a popular television campaign.According to renowned critic Jim DeRogatis, “You’d have to reach all the way back to Blondie’s Plastic Letters to find punkish power pop this endearing.”
This expanded reissue, contains the classic original album, and adds a whopping 10 bonus tracks making their vinyl debut: a radio remix of “Lucky Guy,” a version of “Everywhere I Go” which was only available on the cassette of The Muffs album, and 8 demos from the band’s vocalist and lead guitarist, Kim Shattuck. Released with full cooperation from the band, the double-LP contains liner notes from Shattuck and bassist Ronnie Barnett, and features photos and other ephemera from their personal archives.
